The objective of the project was to design equipment to facilitate the development of physics classes in Secondary to make them more interesting and for students to get closer to the subject explained Kevin. In this sense the TMECI students created a balance beam and a Van de Graaff generator that were already tested in one of Riveras high schools.The TMECI team made up of Marcela Quevedo Robert Beln Michel Silva Maikol Vaz and Melissa Anhanha presented the project Program to learn whose main objective was to bring the gurus closer to programming. To achieve this goal the members of the group induced students from Riveras No. 1 high school to the world of graphic programming teaching them to animate images and create games the idea was also to stimulate them a little so that they choose more technical careers and maybe one day they will become UTEC students said Melissa.The fourth group composed of Leonardo Ortiz Samuel Quintanilla and Leonardo De Leon dedicated himself to the manufacture of devices for the Physics laboratory. The idea of the project was to verify that we can do it. It is very complicated and expensive to bring these elements from outside said the young Samuel who stressed that during the process We learned a lot and applied all the subjects we have had so far in the race.At the end of the Expo the teacher Melody Garca presented the project Flordelana that is being executed by teachers and students of TMECI with the support of the Intendancy and the US embassy that finances part of it. In turn Professor Leonel Paes spoke about the project Border Entrepreneurial Attitude promoted by UTEC the intendancy of Rivera the Federal University of Santa Maria the Development Agency of Rivera and financed by the National Development Agency.The director of Special Programs lvaro Pena valued the fact that all these projects collaborate with an external organization following one of the main objectives of UTEC build with others. Today it was very clear both in the watermelon project in educational projects in what is being done with Flordelana or in entrepreneurship in different areas a mobilization is being generated by the university that generates an incidence direct in society he said.
